I was going to do the upgrade on my zencart, BUT since the host has already upgraded the php, I can not get into my admin area to get information required for shipping and payment modules or remove the modules as the instructions say to do.

Re: Host upgraded to php 5.3.10 - store pages blank now

I looked at that page before posting here. I upload each file in the ASCII mode individually. (I actually did it a second time just to be sure too, as I discovered it was not working) All file sizes are correct once uploaded.

I didn't edit any of the files before uploading them. I just uploaded and overwrote what was there as the instructions said to, since I had not customized any of them in the earlier version.

When I check my server error logs, there are no errors that relate to this issue.

I guess I am off to download and install the debugger mentioned on the page you linked to and give that a try.

Re: Host upgraded to php 5.3.10 - store pages blank now

Ok, I installed the debugger and checked the log file after accessing the page. In the error it showed the application_top.php file couldn't find the initsytem.php file.

I checked my site and sure enough, there was not one there. I looked in my original install files and could not find one either.

I checked in the upgrade I had downloaded for the newest version of zen cart and it was in there, so I took a chance and uploaded it and it appears everything on the main part of the store is working, I can now access it and it appears I can place orders and access my admin area.

My host is also in the process of updating to PHP 5.3.10, and today one of my 1.3.7 sites stopped working with a 500 server error.

When I checked with them they said the full upgrade had not been done yet - but they had installed SuPHP which they said does not allow files to be writeable by group. They changed some permissions, and my site was back online - the admin section also needed the same treatment for it to work.

I have a 1.5 test site, and that wasn't affected. Not sure what will happen with the 1.3.7 site once the PHP 5.3.10 upgrade is done.
